Bai Zhi had never experienced the thrilling experience of giving birth to a child with a knife on her neck. This night left her exhausted and frightened.

When the White Tiger Guard detained Mei Shaohong and asked her what to do with him, she turned her gaze coldly. She wanted to say, "Death by a thousand cuts."

But he still covered his forehead, suppressed the air in his chest, sniffled, and shed two lines of hot tears, "Take custody and seal the city gate."

She was afraid of attracting Beichen's army and causing a massacre.

Bai Zhi gently pushed Li Yinghong's body, which was still cold, but could not see her move.

Zhou Li held Li Yinghong's clothes and counted the knife wounds on her back. There were more than a dozen deep and shallow knife wounds on her back, which was shocking.

Bai Zhi still clearly remembers patting her chest and promising herself that ghosts would have to avoid her when they saw her.

Li Yinghong's voice kept buzzing in Bai Zhi's ears for a long time.

Zhou Li and Bai Zhi were silent. No one dared to speak for fear of being unable to contain their emotions.

The midwives then took the briefly cleaned baby into Bai Zhi's arms, "Look, it's a girl. She's a little thinner, but she's still fine! This hair is dark, just like you!"

As soon as the midwives handed the baby to Bai Zhi, their bodies were a little limp and they looked for a place to lean on. Everything last night really frightened them.

Bai Zhi hugged the child in her arms and pursed her lips. All kinds of emotions turned into tears and rolled in her eyes. She couldn't say a word.

Zhou Li was also shocked and wanted to say something to ease the heavy atmosphere, "Have you thought about your name?"

Bai Zhi was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses, "Ah? I forgot..."

"General Black Tiger didn't say anything?" Zhou Li was a little unbelievable.

"I forgot to mention..." Bai Zhi thought of those days with Zhuo Yao. They chatted a lot every day, and they all discussed military deployment.

Zhou Li smiled helplessly, "You are so awesome!"

"Then give me one!" Bai Zhi wiped away her tears and regained her composure.

"How dare I! Black Tiger won't kill me when he comes back!" Zhou Li hurriedly recommended.

A few simple chats made Bai Zhi calm down a lot. She put on a smile with difficulty, "He doesn't dare! No one will come back! And he dares to make irresponsible remarks! You are a scholar, give me a nickname!"

Zhou Li looked at the sky outside the window, his expression softened, and naming the newborn child made him feel a little relieved, "It's Grain Rain, and it rained again last night. Rain falls on all the grains. Everything can be expected, so why not just do it?" Called Agu?"

"Agu? Agu, Gugu, everything can be expected. Okay, okay! Then call it Agu!" Bai Zhi touched the baby's unexpanded baby with her fingers, and a sincere smile appeared on her face, " Gugu? Gugu, she’s quite cute!”

Angelica dahurica's smile makes the surroundings soften. Newborn babies are like green seedlings sprouting in the fields, carrying an incredible mysterious power that makes people feel energetic.

This kind of energy always makes people can't help but believe that tomorrow will be better.

During the confinement period, Zhou Li took the initiative to take on many matters. In addition, the recruitment attracted many capable people, so many things could be handed over.

Although everyone has their own way of doing things, and there are often differences due to lack of coordination, the overall situation is good.

Bai Zhi also felt a lot more relaxed. As long as there were no foreign enemies or natural disasters, she felt that within two years, this place would be self-sufficient. Within five years, it would undergo earth-shaking changes and become a prosperous place.

Zhuo Yao hurried back more than a month after the child was born. It was late at night, and Bai Zhi had just finished feeding her milk before falling asleep tiredly.

He came at a high speed smelling of sweat, and brought a dirty woman with him.

As soon as he entered the county government office, Zhuo Yao handed the woman over to his servants and went straight into the house.

As soon as he entered the door, before lighting the lamp, he heard the even breathing of the two people, as well as the vague smell of milk in the room.

My heart melted.

Zhuo Yao was tiptoeing for a moment, feeling a little at a loss.

He quietly lit the lamp beside the bed, and the dim light gently hit the faces of Bai Zhi and the child, leaving Zhuo Yao stunned.

His eyes were completely healed.

He hadn't seen Bai Zhi's face for several years, and this time it actually made his eyes wet.

The child beside him was sleeping obediently in his swaddling clothes, with a little white at the corner of his mouth and a small bubble coming out of his tongue.

The unreal feeling that she was still alive in the world and had a child with him made him burst into tears.

Everything is beautiful that he dare not expect, like a dream.

He gently put down the lamp, knelt in front of Meng Ying's memorial tablet and kowtowed three times, saying sorry silently.

The slight noise still woke up Bai Zhi. She looked at the kneeling figure through the screen and immediately knew that Zhuo Yao was back.

This person looked strong and mighty, but he kowtowed to her dead husband at every turn. Bai Zhi couldn't describe this feeling.

She gently got out of bed, walked to the screen, poked her head and asked him, "Are you back?"

Hearing the rising tone of her voice, Zhuo Yao quickly wiped away his tears and looked back at her, "I'm sorry, I couldn't come back in time. I didn't think carefully about Mei Shaohong's matter..."

Seeing his stupidity, Bai Zhi laughed and said, "Why do you apologize as soon as you come back? Isn't that okay?"

Zhuo Yao still lowered his head in discomfort.

Seeing that he was dull, Bai Zhi teased him coquettishly, "Don't you want to hug me?"

Zhuo Yao choked, raised his hand and put it down again, "My body is too dirty."

Only then did Bai Zhi look closely at his face. She saw that he was a little haggard and muddy. He did have a smell. His eyes were extremely red, "How many days have you not slept for a while?"

Zhuo Yao thought for a moment and said, "Seven or eight days."

Bai Zhi held his rough big hand, and even the back of the hand was stained with dry and hard soil.

When Mei Shaohong was holding a knife against her and the child was crying, she had complained about why he was not by her side. But now that he was actually standing in front of her with the same appearance, those complaints had long since disappeared.

At this moment, Bai Zhi doesn't ask for anything. She just wants peace in the world and family reunion.

She gently held him and asked her servants to prepare water, hoping that he would take a good bath.

Zhuo Yao was a little anxious, he wanted to hold her in his arms quickly, "Cold water will do, cold water is faster."

"No! Cold water won't wash her clean! Gu Gu is still young. You can't hold her until she's washed!" Bai Zhi pushed her into the tub.

"Gu Gu?" Zhuo Yao raised his eyebrows slightly.

"That's right! Some people don't even bother naming their children by Zhou Li. Are there any fathers like you?" Bai Zhi blamed him with a smile, and even cleaned his caked hair.

"Why is it called Gu Gu? It's weird!" Zhuo Yao was obviously dissatisfied.

"How weird! I was born during the Grain Rain season. The rain brings forth hundreds of grains, and everything can be expected. How nice it sounds! You will feel cute if you call me twice more!"

"Gu Gu? Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu. However, it sounds nice to scream more." Zhuo Yao said, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "I have to prepare a big gift for Zhou Li."

"What about the name?" Bai Zhi only remembered to discuss it with him now.

Zhuo Yao thought for a while, "My nickname is Gu, and my first name is Sui. I want peace and prosperity every year. How about I call it Sui Sui?"

"Suisui?" Bai Zhi muttered the name silently, then patted Zhuo Yao on the back, "Oh! Why didn't I realize you were so educated before!"

Zhuo Yao was praised and couldn't suppress the smile on his lips, "When I was a kid, I always wrote this word wrong and got a lot of slaps!"

"Hahaha, maybe it's destiny that you and Suisui are destined."

Hearing this, Zhuo Yao felt warm in his heart, "Well, maybe it was destined by God."

The two laughed and joked, and finally fell asleep holding their child after a long bath.

On the second day, Zhuo Yao had to leave.
